For our long weekend we decided to drive up to Butte to see my parents since we hadn't been home since Christmas. Saturday we went to the matinee and watched Indiana Jones and fulfilled my husband's childhood dream since he's been looking forward to this movie pretty much since the last one came out. All in all we weren't disappointed and Mike decided that Henry or Indiana might not be such a bad name for our little baby.
Saturday night my parents decided to take us about 45 min away to a town called Wise River, MT. The town probably had a population of no more than 100 and I only saw a total of 3 buildings, (one of them being a bar). Rumor had it that Wise River put on an exceptionally cute/funny little hometown play and provided a dinner as a fundraiser for the volunteer firemen in the town. So we drove up there and had dinner. I felt like the total outcast, if any of you are from a teeny little town everyone knows everyone and I'm sure they were wondering who the heck we were. But anyways, the memorable part was when we got to the play. The only words I can think of to describe it was jaw dropping-pure torture. From the very beginning they started with some jokes that were similar to the "pull my finger" type jokes and went downhill from there. The people in the audience just laughed and laughed. I was wondering if I was missing something but I don't think I was. We sat in pain for about 2 1/2 hours and when it was over walked away with plenty of 'inside jokes' that we had to keep repeating to each other the rest of the weekend just to find some humor in the whole situation. Overall it was quite the experience. When we first got up there Mike kept saying how beautiful the area was (which it was) and how much he wants to live somewhere like that someday, but once that play got over, he didn't say another word about it. hahaa.
I didn't take this picture, but this shot was taken by Wise River, MT, it was very beautiful. We didn't bring a camera unfortunately. We could've had some nice memories to show off from that trip.
After our nice trip in MT...we brought home the un-welcomed flu bug. I don't know how you women out there deal with barfing and morning sickness. This is the 2nd time I've barfed being pregnant, and both times were a result not relating to pregnancy. I know, I know. I'm a pansy. Its awful though. But anyways I think I totally dehydrated myself because as I was getting ready for work today I pretty much blacked-out. I don't know if thats such a good thing. But I'm feeling better now and drinking lots of water to hydrate myself again. I feel the baby dancing in my tummy all the time now so at least one of us has some energy. Sorry, no pictures this week. After the way I've been feeling I wasn't really up to smiling for the camera.

Sounds like a fun weekend. Sorry to hear you were feeling sick...hopefully you will regain your energy soon. We can't wait to see you this weekend...are you still up for it? I will be calling you to let you know what is going on!
HAHA! I loved the little play thing. Yeah, I've been to a few of those myself.... good memories for sure!
If the baby's a girl (which she is), you can't name a pretty little girl Henry or Indiana. Nope. Can't do it. Louie.
Hey Lisa, thanks for the comment! My mom taught me to crochet when I was younger...and I get really into it for awhile...then drop it for a little while...and on and on. I'm trying to STAY on the bandwagon this time since I have a baby girl to dress up for a little while!! It's definitely easier to learn in-person from someone, but if you are REALLY ambitious you could google for a tutorial and learn that way. My mom was self-taught...I don't know if I could have taught myself just from books (since they didn't have the internet, haha!!) but my mom is more talented than I am!! If you find out what the sex of your baby is, I'll try to get something cute made for him/her before the birth, so let me know!
